Document Summary
Shows us a picture of him and his brother. Ppl used to think that they were twins even though his brother is 4 years older than him. It used to bother him but now he is fine with it. Voice, mvt and other physical characteristics are highly heritable. Many cognitive factors are heritable as well (including iq which is 70-80% heritable) prof did a bit better on the sat. Not well differentiated easy vs difficult though nurses like to use the word active now. Is the child difficult or easy to socialize: how easy is it to comfort them, follow a schedule, some kids are sweet: easy to soothe, responsive to parents, adaptable to different schedules, other kids are a struggle. Prof refers to roland as the terminator in terms of conscientiousness: prof is high on c but his brother is even higher he does 1000 sit ups a day and has been for a long time.
